* M& H- L) {" l2 ]! @! `Ｎｏｔｅ：suitable(合适的、相配的)最常见的用法是以否定的形式出现在告示或通知上，如：下列节目儿童不宜。The following 1 Y( B* r' }$ a Y# G+ E3 q( o& b4 j. @

) w& l, W( ^3 c2 ]4 C% Sjob这种说法难道也有毛病吗？是的。因为如果您的谈话对象刚刚失业，如此直接的问法会让对方有失面子，所以您要问：目前您是在上班吗？Are you working
4 D* f: s5 M+ d$ i. w" @* J

用I have something to 8 ^8 h6 ~: [. O, U1 T9 [0 q. X: n- z
! |$ T N, W1 r' ~9 a
do来表示您很忙，这也完全是中国式的说法。因为每时每刻我们都有事情要做，躺在那里睡大觉也是事情。所以您可以说我很忙，脱不开身：I’m tied
3 [& N; I: f' I5 h" @: N o- y3 S' H& S* h( i( r

I don’t have an English name.
4 f0 T8 Y& `) j- q
" _0 I- U, W- ]+ e' kＮｏｔｅ：许多人讲英语犯这样的错误，从语法角度来分析，可能是语法功底欠缺，因为have在这里是实义动词，而并不是在现在完成时里面那个没有意义的助动词。所以，这句话由肯定句变成否定句要加助动词。 / E# H( h0 x, q7 {9 T( ?! u4 w. ]

明白道理是一回事，习惯是另一回事，请您再说几话：我没有钱；I don’t have any money.我没有兄弟姐妹；I don’t have any

# q7 x$ W& Z3 X3 {' L9 A1 XＮｏｔｅ：这一组然是个习惯问题，在语法上称为否定前置，这就是汉语里面说“我想我不会”的时候，英语里面总是说“我不认为我会”。以后您在说类似的英语句子的时候，只要您留心，也会习惯英语的说法的，

" f* A! T4 N" b9 Q- G. e2 {: ]5 z
$ n. ~1 K- @! `Ｎｏｔｅ：当我们说不擅长做什么事情的时候，英语里面通常用not good at something，英语的思维甚至直接踊跃到：我不是一个好的舞者。 ' {* E5 A7 J6 ^" i

What time is it, please?
7 d8 z& g0 t: E
+ E& K5 j5 R5 d+ T- Q4 v% s# ]8 y1 kＮｏｔｅ：What time is it now这是一个直接从汉语翻译过的句子，讲英语的时候没有必要说now,因为您不可能问what time was it
7 b7 j+ ^% E+ Z1 I) q, v- t( W0 M& x3 Z3 O
yesterday, 或者what time is it tommorow?所以符合英语习惯的说法是：请问现在几点了？还有一种说法是：How are we $ Y: S4 v1 ~" w7 k6 ^$ M* B# A
' F; `' L0 R/ v$ y2 {4 v4 {# O
doing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适 8 P4 |( Q8 Q8 N* q: q! V, x6 d, |

1 O0 v& T8 Q' Q7 {! f8 F' o% |, q5 j, b7 v" Q

) h& h+ M, e ^当您告诉外国人，您的英语很poor，so what(那又怎么样呢)，是要让别人当场施舍给我们一些英语呢，还是说我的英语不好，咱们不谈了吧。
5 P+ U( k7 K9 U! r5 Q: k2 J) a9 Y, @- n
另外一个更大的弊端是，一边不停的学英语，一边不停地说自己的英语很poor,这正像有个人一边给车胎充气，又一边在车胎上扎孔放气。
" s1 `# O/ w" S9 A" K0 f4 x* Q8 A# H: H! y; L, f+ `
我坚信，先不谈别的，如果您现在就苦下功夫，把这本薄薄的《英语５４３２１》吃通吃透，您的英语水平立即就会迅速的提高。所以您再也不用说：我的英语很poor. 5 o8 ]& t; l) X$ y: ~

以英语为母语的人使用of course的频率要比中国的学生低得多，只有在回答一些众所周知的问题时才说of course。因为of
